Poisonous wheat behind sudden baldness in Maharashtra: If someone says that eating wheat causes baldness, it seems like ‘gossip of cold weather’, isn’t it? This seems to be a coincidence, but the truth is that such a rare event has occurred not with a person, but with a group of people. This story is from Buldhana district of Maharashtra, where many residents’ hair has suddenly started falling. The issue has been investigated by experts and health officials, resulting in wheat declared villains.
Padma Shri Dr. has investigated the matter by Himmatrao Bavaskar. At the end of a month’s study, he said that the affected people were eating wheat contacted with toxins, due to which their hair was falling.
People are consuming toxins.
Dr. Bavaskar has said, “A high level of selenium has been recorded in wheat distributed under the Public Distribution System (PDS). This wheat came from Punjab. This wheat (from Punjab) has been found to be 600 times more selenium than the locally grown wheat varieties. High levels of selenium are considered to be the cause of alopecia (hair loss).
Selenium
Selenium is such a poisonous element that within three to four days of hair loss, the entire head becomes naked! So fast hair loss is a cause of concern. In Buldhana district, not two-four people, but hundreds of people have fallen victim to this problem.
Selenium is found in blood, urine and hair
Wheat samples were tested at the Varni Analytical Lab in Thane, with a level of 14.52 mg per kilogram of selenium. Normal selenium intake is 1.9 mg per kg. From this point of view, the people of Buldhana who are eating wheat are dangerously poisonous. Samples of blood, urine and hair of the victims were taken, which found 35 times, 60 times and 150 times in selenium levels respectively. The negative effect of selenium was more on individuals who had low zinc levels in the body.
Baldness causes social shame
About 300 people from 18 villages of Buldhana district have fallen victim to this problem. Many of them are college students! Some people have a lot of head hair, while others are completely bald. Some children have also been affected. From 8 -year -old child to 72 -year -old elderly, they have become bald. Shambling children and youth have also stopped going to school and college due to their hair loss. The engagement of some youth has also been broken due to sudden hair loss.
Everyone’s eyes will be on what steps the Maharashtra government takes in this direction. Will this childless condition become permanent for people suffering from prematurely baldness, or will modern medical science help them?
